Don't extend that qemu automagic please.  The new way to handle this is:

   -drive if=none,id=mydisk,file=/path/to/some/disk.img
   -device megasas,id=raid
   -device scsi-disk,bus=raid.0,scsi-id=1,drive=mydisk

--verbose please.  I'd prefer to fix scsi-disk bugs and/or limitations 
instead of working around them.

Which should be fixed anyway.
